Lisa Keefauver, MSW is a grief activist with more than two decades of professional experiences with grief and loss; working as a social worker, narrative therapist, and educator within multiple settings from non-profits to corporations and universities. Lisa's wisdom and understanding of grief is also embodied from her personal losses including the death of her husband Eric from Brain Cancer in 2011.

Her grief advocacy led her to found Reimagining Grief, with a mission to illuminate and dismantle the limited and misleading collective story of grief that causes so much unnecessary suffering. It also inspired her to create and host the top-rated podcast, Grief is a Sneaky B * t c h ; serve as an adjunct professor of Loss and Grief at the University of Texas at Austin; and act as an organizational consultant to facilitate grief-smart organizations.

Just before beginning treatment for Triple Positive Breast Cancer in 2023, she took to the TEDx stage to deliver her talk, Why Knowing More About Grief Can Make it S * c k Less. Learn more about why she is on a mission to change the narratives of grief by watching her Media Maker Profile by Medicinal Media. She will be speaking this fall at End Well 2024 Conference.

Her first book, GIASB: An Uncensored Guide to Navigating Loss has received rave reviews including a Starred Review By Booklist, Publishers Weekly, Book of the Week in Maria Shriver's The Sunday Paper, and featured in Zibby’s Summer Reads.
